Publication Board Activities

By Norman Giesbrecht, Chair, Publications Board

 

The APHA Publication Board has been very active in the past months.  Below you will find a list of books published in 2010, in production, and expected in production in 2010.  

In addition there are many other resources available if you go to the APHA Pub Board website and download the catalogue of books in print. I would encourage all ATOD members to consider using these resources in your community-based advocacy work, research, teaching, or intervention and prevention planning.  

 

Also, if you and your colleagues have an idea for a book manuscript that you are working on/planning and would like to get published, please send a few paragraphs outlining what you have in mind to Nina Tristani, Director of Publications, APHA, nina.tristani@apha.org.

Thanks for your interest.
